29: Chapter 29 I want it too~

Watching this scene, Ye Qingqing pursed her lips. In this Post-Apocalyptic World, human desires were magnified infinitely, especially after more than ten days without outside rescue or suppression from The Authorities.

Some people, relying on the fact that no one was in charge, gradually began to reveal the evil side of human nature.

Take Zhao Degang, for example. At this moment, Zhao Degang was like a peacock acting as if a chicken feather were a command token.

He thought that because he had a few people with him, he could be arrogant and look down on everyone.

"Brother, this inflatable boat of yours is quite nice. Are you heading out to find supplies?"

Huo Sixian looked at Zhao Degang. His attitude wasn't too bad, and he still possessed the character of a Soldier, so he kindly informed the crowd.

"Yes. The Typhoon has weakened now, so it's a good opportunity to go out and look for food. No one should stay idle; those who need to find supplies should head out."

After Huo Sixian finished speaking, he prepared to sit on the Kayak to set off, but Zhao Degang began to be relentless.

"I say, brother, this isn't right. You have three boats here, but including that woman, there are only six of you. You could totally lend them to us brothers, right?"

Hearing Zhao Degang's words, Huo Sixian's expression darkened. "And what if I say no?"

Hearing Huo Sixian's response, Zhao Degang signaled with his eyes, and the several people behind him immediately stepped forward.

Even Zhao Degang's attitude became much more arrogant as he walked directly up to Huo Sixian. "No? Then let's see if you have the ability to get out of here!"

Standing to the side, Kong Ziyi burst out laughing upon hearing Zhao Degang's words. Actually, Ye Qingqing was also curious about the combat skills of Huo Sixian and his group.

For a long time now, Ye Qingqing had only felt that these men seemed very capable of fighting, but no one had ever seen them truly take action. Therefore, Zhao Degang's provocation made Ye Qingqing start to feel curious as well.

Hearing Kong Ziyi's laughter from the side, Zhao Degang felt a bit embarrassed and barked out a low command: "Brothers, what are you standing around for?"

"Go straight in and take them down!"

Upon hearing Zhao Degang's words, the men behind him picked up their tools and weapons and marched toward Huo Sixian.

Seeing that Zhao Degang's group was serious, Lu Huan and the others stopped what they were doing. To prevent Ye Qingqing from getting hurt, Huo Sixian...

...directly scooped Ye Qingqing up by the waist and tossed her onto the inflatable boat to keep her out of harm's way.

Ye Qingqing's heart raced at Huo Sixian's sudden move, and she couldn't help but feel a slight blush on her face.

What was this about?

Being carried away like a child?

Ye Qingqing felt a bit bashful. Meanwhile, Lin Wanrou, who had finally found something to cling to, was watching Ye Qingqing with a poisonous gaze from the side.

Ye Qingqing noticed Lin Wanrou's gaze and originally wanted to deal with her, but looking at Lin Wanrou made her feel a bit nauseous, so she pushed the thought to the back of her mind.

At that moment, Ye Qingqing suddenly saw a black shadow fall out of a nearby window.

Looking closely, it turned out to be Zhao Degang, who had been so arrogant just a moment ago.

At this point, Zhao Degang was in a similar state to Lin Wanrou earlier, struggling and splashing incessantly in the water.

Ye Qingqing was somewhat stunned. She had thought they would be delayed here for a while, but what was the situation now?

Had it even been two minutes since she sat on this inflatable boat?

It was already settled?

Ye Qingqing hadn't even seen clearly how Huo Sixian and the others had made their move before it was over.

Zhao Degang was still splashing about, desperately calling for someone to save him.

Unlike Lin Wanrou, Zhao Degang wasn't without help. With him in the water, many people started using tools to try and fish him out.

They even wanted to score some points with Zhao Degang; if he was happy, maybe he would distribute a bit more food to them.

Huo Sixian jumped onto the inflatable boat, and the remaining two Kayaks were each boarded by two people.

"Let's go, we need to hurry."

Inside the building, one couldn't feel the rain or know exactly what the situation was like outside, but as Ye Qingqing came out now, she truly felt that the apocalypse had arrived once again.

Moreover, this apocalypse was even more terrifying than the one in her previous life.

A drizzling rain fell from the sky, and the Typhoon came in fits and starts. Occasionally, in places where the wind was stronger, it would wash the inflatable boat and Kayaks away.

Being outdoors in this kind of weather, apart from the wind and rain hitting one's face, was actually bearable—at least it was much better than the extreme cold and heat that would follow later.

"Where are we going?" Ye Qingqing watched as the inflatable boat moved further away, feeling a bit uncertain because the entire city was now submerged by the flood. Lower buildings were directly underwater.

Relying only on the skyscrapers from before the apocalypse, Ye Qingqing found it hard to recognize the way for a moment, even though she was someone living a second life.

However, Huo Sixian seemed to have no such troubles at all, steering the inflatable boat through various turns.

"We're here."

Ye Qingqing looked at the building in front of her. If she remembered correctly, this was a Department Store from her previous life.

But this building wasn't like a regular shopping mall; it was a Department Store where the entire building was filled with shops.

Inside, there was a dazzling array of everything imaginable.

"This place..."

Looking at Huo Sixian, Ye Qingqing couldn't help but feel that her own brain really wasn't up to par. Originally, she had wanted to go to some nearby commercial buildings, thinking there might be some leftover supplies for her to 'purchase' for zero dollars.

But she had completely overlooked the existence of such a Department Store.

"This place is pretty good, right? Now I just hope that the things inside this building haven't rotted yet."

Looking at the building, Ye Qingqing was overjoyed. For a moment, she even felt as though everything inside was already her spoils of war.

"Let's go."

Huo Sixian parked the inflatable boat and used some force to pull the two Kayaks behind him alongside it.

Li Wenzhuo pulled a sharp little hammer out of his bag and tapped each of the four corners of a glass window. Then, with a surge of strength in his hand...

...the entire pane of glass shattered before them.

Huo Sixian was the first to vault inside.

Then, he extended his hand toward Ye Qingqing.

"Come, be careful."

Ye Qingqing wasn't bashful; after all, there were still many glass shards around. If she wasn't careful and got injured, it would be more trouble than it was worth.

Seeing Ye Qingqing go up, Kong Ziyi, who was behind her, said to Huo Sixian with a cheeky grin: "Brother Yan, I want one too~"

Hearing this, Ye Qingqing's body stiffened. She then acted as if she hadn't heard it; surely it wasn't what she was imagining.

Huo Sixian snapped back at Kong Ziyi in annoyance: "Get lost."

Kong Ziyi grinned widely: "You got it!"

The water level at this Department Store wasn't as high as it was at Ye Qingqing's building.
